All you have to do is install and configure snmp on all your machines and then set up cacti + web server with php on some machine to gather all the info from the others via snmp. You will get nice graphs (cacti uses rrdtools) for almost everything you can get via snmp (disk usage, cpu utilization, network traffic, load average,...) where you can utilize hirstorical view (last week, last month, from xxx to xxx, ...). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have a terminal opened on that system (actually, another ssh session fron the main box), and I'd like to have my new connection attach to that terminal session, if possible, so that I can just pick up where I left off, and monitor it from here.

With screen the process will continue if his ssh session dies and he would be able to later reattach to the terminal in question. -- PGP KeyID: 0x3118168B Keyserver: pgp.mit.edu Key fingerprint BB50 2983 0714 36DC D02E 158A E03D 56DA 3118 168B signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
kernel: interrupt storm detected on irq11:; throttling interrupt source
Hi, I bought recently wireless PCMCIA card with atheros chip. When it`s not connected to my access point (ap down, or I just brought the card up and didn`t tell it to which SSID to connect) I often see kernel: interrupt storm detected on irq11:; throttling interrupt source and my system freezes for some seconds.

Btw Contra was one of the best shooting games for those boxes. As I said there are to many games for those old boxes, that you can play with the mame emulator. You can also try with some windows games on windows or using the wine emulator (the P-III won`t be fast enough for emulation). StartCraft* is one of my favouries (runs with the wine emulator under FreeBSD). There are some games in ports like xjewels (super cool tetris game as far as I remember), xboing is good too. In the end I should say: install as more games as you can and give your son the chance to choose what to play :) a lot of games is always good, one can always find at least one that he can play the whole day long. Having less games is somehow limiting. -- This correspondence is strictly confidential.

If I plug the router to the lan NIC and configure it to take DHCP and DNS settings from the BSD box, then the wireless will not bypass the BSD machine, will it? You can do it in the following ways: 1) Box with one NIC - connect the box to your home network - disable DSL router`s DHCP for your home network - start dhcpd on the box giving ip addresses to your home clients and telling them that the box itself is the gateway, run squid or whatever you want to capture your clients' traffic and filter them, then the box users the DSL router for gateway - disadvantages: if your kids are smart they will just change their gateway so that it`s not the box, but the DSL router and override your filtering 2) Same as above, but say DSL`s home ip is 10.51.87.1 you give the box 10.51.87.2, then give the box another ip (alias) 10.37.6.1 and tell the dhcpd on the box to give ip adresses from the 10.37.6.0/24 network to the client. The idea is to use 2 networks, one box - clients, the other for dsl router - box - disadvantages: again if your kids are smart they`ll just set themselves some static ip from the dsl router`s network and browse. They just have to figure out router`s ip and network :) as in the above case 3) Box with 2 NICs and wireless NIC - disable dsl router`s wireless NIC - connect dsl router to NIC1 on the box - connect NIC2 to home net - setup the box wireless as Access Point - bridge NIC2 and the wireless NIC on the box - run your filter 4) Forget about the DSL router.
